does laughing for a long period of time help burn calories?!


Question: i've just noticed that after you laugh for a while that your stomach starts to hurt, so i was wondering if that did anything
Answers:
Yes. It's been proven that laughter can burn calories, and lower blood pressure. Aside from the stomach pain you mentioned (the diaphram muscle being excercised actually) Laughing will slightly raise your heart rate; givin one a very mild cardio workout.

Other Answers:
No.
yeah of course when you laugh you use muscles so logically you would be burning at least some calories. I mean come on, you burn calories when you kiss
It does help the stomach muscles, so I would think it would burn calories, too.
